On Saturday, after beating Williams, 6-3, 7-5, for the title, she got the real deal: prize money of $3.85 million.Like other WTA youngsters, Andreescu is getting the precious opportunity to make a name for herself by playing against Williams, the greatest player of this era.
“It goes full circle,” Evert said Sunday. “I was a teenager who had no pressure and beat the top players like Billie Jean King and Margaret Court when they were at the end of their careers. Steffi beat me at the end of mine. What goes around comes around. Serena is learning that now, but you have to and should play both roles if you want longevity.”Story continues below advertisement
But the more that Williams falters in big matches, the more empowered all of her potential rivals become. That is a lot of empowerment, and it is unlikely to get easier for Williams, even if she beats the odds by staying healthy and being able to consistently train and compete, which has not been the case for much of this injury-filled season.
Globe_Sports THIS is not IT !! 🤔🤔🤔😒😒
Globe_Sports Delete your account.
Globe_Sports Petty... envious.. Small minded.. Whoever wrote that copy is not familiar with tennis or SW accomplishments for that label to appear however I guess you needed the traffic. snake
Globe_Sports Nah only this headline is failure, try again
Globe_Sports Tasteless again from the Globe and Mail... We need to celebrate , not put down... Typically Canadian Media..
Globe_Sports This article belongs in the trash bin.
Globe_Sports Way to go Bianca! Thank you for this trophy. Oh Canada....
Globe_Sports Wow. What a disappointing headline. DoBetter
Globe_Sports This headline was unnecessarily disrespectful. These girls are feeling honored to be paying against Serena win or lose.
Globe_Sports Second place is just the first loser/failure. Quit while you are ahead.
Globe_Sports Immediate unfollow. Absolutely ridiculous. You lot love to see her 'fail,' I wonder why.
Globe_Sports Are you dumb?! Delete this. Serena is far from a failure. The only failure I see is this headline.
Globe_Sports Shaming the female loser by name, and letting the female winner - a Canadian! - go silent. Your headline writers need to get acquainted with the 21st century already.
Classless title, love both of them
Globe_Sports That headline belongs in the bin.
Globe_Sports Harsh. Serena Williams has been supportive of Andreescu, and Andreescu still idolizes Williams.
Globe_Sports I've lost a lot of respect for Serena ever since she classlessly lost to Naomi Osaka, but she's still not a failure by any means
Globe_Sports Look at those headlights Serena has !
Globe_Sports Wtf?
Globe_Sports Globe and Mail sports, you are classless and clueless. She has won everything that is there to win. Even as she inches towards the end of an illustrious career, she is proud to see a younger Bianca excel, just like she did in her young days. Show some respect
Globe_Sports Globe_Sports gets acquainted with outrageously classless and troll like behaviour, calling out a champion many times over a failure. I wonder if they've used the same language on other men with as much prestige. Do better.
Globe_Sports Did you crawl out from under a rock? 23 grand slam winner!Made it to the finals -She is hardly a failure! But you are for writing such a 💩headline 😡
Globe_Sports The goes classless! & tasteless should be your headline.
Globe_Sports Ooh that is harsh & unnecessary! She certainly is not a failure! Are you now the new Canadian TMZ.
mstanik0 Globe_Sports This headline is so dumb. How is reaching the finals failure?
Globe_Sports It's called 'The Changing of the Guard'. It's a natural, undeniable process. As to be expected for a 38 year old mother of two-year-old. Don't be jerks, Globe_Sports
Globe_Sports I'm glad and will almost always root for Canadian athletes, but regardless of that I think this headline is a tad classless, no?
Globe_Sports What a nasty headline, did Fife the Knife write it?
Globe_Sports The sports people are morons like most of the media
Globe_Sports She’s old now the teens are always quicker
Globe_Sports She literally got to the finals and got a trophy. Also is the greatest to do it. Iddddddiiiiiooooots.
Globe_Sports Serena Williams-23 titles. Next closest is Roger Federer with 20 titles. Globe_Sports you might want to slow your roll on titles like this or at least attach them to the right athlete.
Globe_Sports 🤦♂️🤦♂️🤦♂️🤦♂️
Globe_Sports Couldn't you people have thought of a better way to say it? I mean she made it the finals of a grand slam tournament. She didn't fail at all.
Globe_Sports Well that's not very Canadian of you...
Globe_Sports Would Jack or Arnie endure this byline after twenty years dominating their sport?
Globe_Sports dial it back just a bit.
Globe_Sports reaching the finals of a grand slam tournament isn't a 'failure'
